Here she is. Like a new baby this rifle took me 9 months to build and costs me a lot more money than I could have ever imagined haha.

Here are her body parts:

DPMS Stripped lower
DPMS LPK
Magpul CTR Stock (Mil Spec)
Magpul Grip
Model 1 EM-16 Upper (ER Shaw barrel, chrome, 1/9)
MI Free Float Railed Grip
Tactical Latch charging handle
Standard FSB
Standard A2 Flash Hider
Magpul Rail ladders (not sure about keeping ladder on the upper)
Tango Down Forward Grip
Troy BUIS
Surefire M961 Light

And some pictures:

My new Rifle:

The other side:

And lastly the Rifle with its XD counterpart:

So, what do you all think I should name her?

I'd call it Hungry

She needs a FDE PMag stuffed in her mouth.

Damnit... I was going to redo the pictures but I didn't want to unload the mag and then have to reload it lol... all my other FDE mags are at my buddies house with my ammo box and ammo.

I've had the name "Sandy" suggested lol.

Sweet, I like the color scheme BUT...

I've already named mine Sandy this past week! guess we were thinking along the same lines.

I like the vfg, I didnt think I'd really want one until I started handling mine for an extended period of time. Now I want one.

cleaned up your pic a bit

Fish609 · 08-17-2008, 12:25 PM

Wow, you two have the exact same rifle! ... j/k

My next step is to put my C-more tactical on it. I don't think I am going to do that until I have an optic to replace the one that is currently on my other rifle. I have that thing sighted in so well that I can't bring myself to take it off haha.

I had to edit my toes out of the XD picture haha.
